A lot happens to our smile when we lose natural teeth. Obviously, there are problems with consuming solid foods. Even talking clearly could be a problem. However, the major problem is the loss of structure in the jaw. This weakens the jaw, and could even cause an older appearance. More importantly, this leaves the smile too weak for implants. Additional treatments could be necessary to strengthen the jaw in order to make dental implant placement possible! Fortunately, Doctors Network could help you schedule an appointment with a great Port Protection dentist who is in-network with 1199 and performs ridge augmentation. In addition, we could also discuss our payment plans to make dental care affordable!


Ridge preservation is also known as ridge augmentation. Essentially this enables the dentist to preserve the ridge in your gums. Your dentist could use a number of different options. Tissue could be taken from the back of the jaw or the hip. Donor materials may be recommended too. Some opt for synthetic materials. In a surgical procedure, these are applied to the areas of weakened structure in the lower jawbone.


Once the area heals, one or more dental implants could be placed. The body will see them as natural structures. As a result, they help prevent any further breakdown in the jaw, allowing long-lasting tooth replacement. Our team can connect you to a dentist in Port Protection, AK who offers this surgical procedure, and also let you know about our dental discount plan to make sure your care fits in your budget!

Tooth loss could lead to multiple complications for your smile. For example, this could impact your nutritional intake, or how clearly you can articulate. But the most serious complication is the loss of mass and density in the jaw. The body decreases the flow of calcium and phosphate to the areas without roots, which in turn causes bone loss and an aged appearance and weakens the jaw significantly. Which means you may not be able to receive dental implants to address gaps in your smile. But Doctors Network can connect you with a dentist in Port Protection, AK who can make smiles ready for implants.


As discussed in previous posts, a jawbone grafting procedure helps strengthen the mandible, so it can support dental implants. But what about the the upper area? Instead of adding new tissue, your Port Protection dentist could perform a sinus lift. Basically, the dentist will raise the sinus floor to generate new tissues. The new structure can support one or more implants. Once the new teeth are secured, this stimulates the growth of bone tissue to preserve the area. Your new teeth then stay firm for decades, possibly even a lifetime.


If you need to strengthen your weakened upper jawbone to support a new smile, we could help. Our team can connect you with a Port Protection, AK dental professional who can provide these services and takes 1199. When your smile is strengthened and ready, dental implants could provide a complete smile again. If you don’t have insurance, don’t let this stand between you and good oral health. Instead, talk to our team about our monthly membership plan. With a monthly membership fee, you can have treatments discounted by as much as 90% in some situations. A full smile is possible again!

It is imperative for kids to visit a pediatric dentist twice a year for exams and cleanings. By teaching your children great oral health habits, you are ensuring that they have the tools to have healthy smiles for many years. If you are looking for a dental office in Port Protection who accepts 1199, you are on the right website.


In addition to offering exams and cleanings, pediatric dentists on Doctors Network also provide your child with protective sealants. These are thin pieces of film that go over their molars. They work as a protective film that forms a protective layer between their adult molars and bacteria. This ultimately prevents the risk of cavities by up to 80 percent. It is a simple service that is very effective at preventing the need for fillings in the future.


Fluoride treatments are another effective tool that your dentists provide. Fluoride is a naturally occurring mineral that helps fortify your children’s enamel. While enamel is one of the strongest substances our bodies produce, it can still weaken over time. When this occurs, your little one’s teeth become more susceptible to cavities. This procedure helps mitigate this damage. Using fluoride toothpaste can also help. To learn more, we invite you to schedule an appointment with one of our network dental professionals in Port Protection.

Many individuals would be elated to have a whiter smile. When you venture down the aisles of any drug store, you see countless products that advertise their teeth whitening abilities. If you have tried any of these, you know that they almost always provide disappointing results. However, professional teeth whitening can actually give you a brighter smile. If you are looking for a dentist in Port Protection, AK that works with 1199, we can help you find one that offers professional tooth whitening.

When you visit your Port Protection dentist, they can provide you with either an in-office or at-home treatment option. Should you opt for treatment in the office, you will only have to stay for roughly an hour. When you visit the office for whitening, your dentist will apply a special bleaching gel that, when activated by a special light, will get rid of stains.

If you would prefer to go with an at-home treatment, your dentist will give you a set of custom trays that you can fill with a safe peroxide solution. You will wear these for a couple of hours each day for roughly two weeks. Once this treatment is complete, you will have a more radiant smile. If you would like to request an appointment with a Port Protection dentist that accepts 1199, we can help you find the best ones.

If it has been over six months since you last visited a dentist, you probably should schedule a checkup as soon as possible. When you go in for bi-yearly visits, your dentist can closely examine your teeth to make sure nothing is amiss. This helps prevent cavities from occurring, minimizing the chance of needing more invasive procedures in the future. If you are looking for a dentist in Port Protection, AK that takes 1199 we can help you find a great office.

To begin your visit, a hygienist will clean your teeth thoroughly. This will remove plaque that is difficult to remove at home — even with great brushing and flossing habits. The dental prophylaxis will leave your teeth feeling fresh and rejuvenated.

Once your cleaning is done, your Port Protection dentist will begin her or his examination. During this portion of your visit, the dentist will thoroughly look at your dentition to identify any potential complications. If they find anything amiss, they can suggest the proper treatment. The Port Protection dental office we set you up with will offer a myriad of services to address a variety of dental conditions. If you visit the dentist regularly they can keep track of the health of your smile. If you have any questions or would like to schedule an appointment online with a dentist that accepts 1199, we can help you find a great one.

It was so easy to find a doctor and make an appointment. I didn't have to take hours to call different offices and find out who takes my insurance and who doesn't.

I'm a freelancer, so I can't buy insurance easily, so I always ended up paying a lot for doctors' visits. I signed up for a Doctors Network dental plan, and my dental cleanings cost only $25 now. If you don't have dental insurance I highly recommend it.
